Later that night, Jasmine came all the way to pick Charlie up.Upon seeing Charlie, Jasmine arched her hands respectfully before him and greeted, “Mr. Wade, I’m really sorry to trouble you.Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “Miss Moore, you don’t have to be so polite.”After that, Charlie noticed that Jasmine was wearing a diamond necklace around her neck. At this time, he asked out of curiosity, “This is the diamond necklace that you lost previously, isn’t it?”Jasmine nodded hurriedly before she replied, “Yes. This is the diamond necklace that my mother gave me before she passed away and it’s more important to me than my own life. Therefore, I’m really grateful towards you because if it wasn’t because of you, I would never have gotten it back, Mr. Wade.”Charlie smiled before he replied, “Jasmine, you have a connection with the diamond necklace. Even if I did not help you, it would’ve been transferred back to your hands after a short while.”Jasmine knew that Charlie was

Charlie was very unhappy at this time.After all, the only reason he had agreed to come here today was because he wanted to show some respect for Jasmine. Otherwise, the young master of the Wade family would not even have bothered to step into the Moore family mansion. Why would they even be worthy of his presence?Jasmine was also furious at this time. “Brother! How could you say such things? You might choose not to believe in someone’s ability but you shouldn’t disrespect them just because of that!”Reuben snorted coldly before he replied, “Respect? I only respect masters with real talents and skills. I don’t think swindlers deserve my respect at all!”After that, Reuben pointed at the old man standing next to him before he proudly introduced him, “This is Anthony Simmons, an extremely famous doctor in the South Region, and his granddaughter.”Charlie was slightly taken aback and he looked at the people standing before him.The old man and the young girl looked like a grandfath

”Alright then, since you know your own place.”At this time, a middle-aged man stepped forward and said, “Jasmine! Reuben! It looks like your grandpa is not going to make it!”Anthony quickly asked, “’Where’s the old man? Please lead me to him so I can take a look at his condition.”“He’s in his room at the back of the house. Please follow me,” Reuben replied as he hurriedly walked ahead to lead Anthony and his granddaughter to his grandfather.Jasmine hurriedly beckoned for Charlie to follow behind them.Everyone quickly arrived at a very luxurious and vintage bedroom at the back of the saw and they could see a dying old man lying on a bed on a bed frame made out of yellow rosewood.The old man looked very haggard and his brows were tightly knitted together, as though he was enduring a great deal of pain.Anthony quickly said, “The old man is in a very critical condition. Please allow my granddaughter and I to begin treatment immediately.”Reuben hurriedly replied, “Dr. Simmon

”Thank you for your hard work, doctor,” the middle-aged man said immediately. After that, Reuben hurriedly invited Anthony and his granddaughter to sit and have a cup of tea.After a short while, the young girl took the needles out before she took the tea cup in her hand and finished the cup of tea at one go.Even though the young girl had only performed an acupuncture for the old man, the color on his face had already returned and his breathing was more even at this time.Everyone in the Moore family was extremely happy.The young girl was also very content at this time. After drinking the cup of tea, the young girl stared at Charlie with a contemptuous expression on her face, as though telling him, “Look! I’ve already cured the old man.”Charlie did not say anything and he had a very straight expression on his face.In fact, if her spiritual energy was very well-mastered, she would not be as tired as she would not need to put much effort into administering her skills at all.H

Xyla was surprised and dumbfounded when she saw that Charlie was using the same technique that she had used earlier!She hastily replied, “How can he be so shameless? He’s using the same technique that I was using earlier! Did he copy and steal my technique by watching me earlier?”Anthony had a very calm expression on his face at this time. He only spoke up a few seconds later. “Look clearly again. Pay close attention to his gestures and movement.”The young girl looked at Charlie for a little longer and she muttered in shock, “He…what is he…”Xyla immediately recognized that the acupuncture technique Charlie was using was indeed the same Heavenly Thousand Needles acupuncture technique that had been passed down from generation to generation in the Simmons family. Even though his moves looked almost the same as her acupuncture method earlier, after taking a closer look, Xyla could tell that there were some differences in their techniques.This…Was this an upgraded version of the

Xyla felt very aggrieved and she was very unconvinced at this time. Therefore, she gritted her teeth before she said, “I want to compete with him and if he’s really capable, I’ll definitely apologize to him then.”“How long are you going to keep up this attitude of yours?” Anthony yelled in anger as he stared at his granddaughter.The middle-aged man from the Moore family was also stunned at this time. No one would have expected Charlie to have better strength and skills compared to the famous Dr. Simmons.Reuben was also very confused at this time. What was Dr. Simmons saying? Did he mean that this young man actually had some skills?How could this be possible?Could they really rely on him?Was Anthony really convinced by Charlie’s skills?At this time, Charlie glanced at Xyla and he could tell that she was really unhappy. Her face was flushed red with anger and she had a very dissatisfied expression on her face. Charlie found that hilarious and hence, he asked, “How would you

After he finished speaking, Charlie pointed at the middle-aged man in the Moore family before he said, “In addition to high blood pressure, this gentleman here is also suffering from diabetes and heart palpitations. Moreover, this gentleman had also suffered from a broken rib in his left chest and this is an old injury from about ten years ago.”The middle-aged man from the Moore family was very shocked and he exclaimed in astonishment, “Mr. Wade, your medical skills are really incredible! How can you tell that I’m suffering from diabetes? I’m also very amazed that you can tell that I have a broken rib in my left chest. I had a rib fracture from a car accident thirteen years old and that’s the reason why I have this old injury.”Charlie smiled before he pointed at Reuben and said, “Your lung infection came about because you were drinking too much and your kidneys do not have the capability to process your intake. In addition to your lung problems, your biggest problem is your kidney

Xyla finally understood what Charlie meant.Charlie was giving her face when he said that she had left some things out, but that made a lot of difference!Anthony was also shocked at this time.Anthony could see that Charlie was deliberately controlling his own internal breath and he was deliberately allowing his spiritual energy to flow backwards in his body to create the illusion of a ‘heart disease’. That was the reason why his granddaughter was fooled.However, reversing the flow of reiki in the body could cause extreme pain and discomfort.However, not only could Charlie control the flow of reiki in his body but he was also controlling it freely in a calm and composed manner, as though he was not feeling any pain at all. It seemed as though he had already cultivated his skills for more at least fifty to a hundred years!Anthony knew that Charlie was indeed an expert.On the other hand, his granddaughter was still trying to provoke Charlie.Fortunately, Charlie was a gentle

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an
Chapter 6481
That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l

Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
Chapter 6478
Soon, the video of Mick's staged act was uploaded to the online group, and everyone eagerly watched it as soon as it was done uploading.Mick certainly set a new bar with his acting as none of them could see that it was an act.Moreover, everyone could see that the bronze sculpture looked like the real deal, and they might have been swindled if it were them.As such, they couldn't help being impressed as Mick had easily seen through Billy's con, and he was the definition of a pro in that video.No matter how Billy had packaged it, there was no tricking real experts like Mick Crane. Just a quick glance and he had seen through that it was a postmodern replica, matched with a base from the Renaissance era to misdirect and beguile.With that, many fellow antique dealers changed their opinion of Mick.After all, Vintage Deluxe's business had been declining after Mick took over as manager, and people were presuming that his skills were lacking.But now, they were all shown that he had

"Amazing, Mr. Crane!""It's Mr. Crane who shines through, in the end! His eyes see through everything!""I guess Miss Moore made the right choice firing Raymond and appointing Mr. Crane! Mr. Crane is infinitely better!"Mick was immediately thrilled to see them fawning over him, and he laughed, "You flatter me—I'm merely sharing my personal perspective on this. In this trade, anyone who knows would understand how hard it is to get the good stuff in this age of technology.""There are plenty of people who hold ulterior motives and change their tactics knowing that there are always those scheming to get their hands on vintage treasures, so they just have to make it. That is how they started making counterfeits of everything, from scrolls to sculptures to statues, each of them so real just to trick those fools who think they could get rich overnight!""Exactly!" Someone promptly agreed. "There's never a lack of any such fools, and I just happened to meet one. I had this piece of jade

In groups like these, any gossip would immediately spread like wildfire as people share everything here with their other circles.Within minutes of these people's good work, Antique Street was abuzz even as the skies darkened: one of the antique traders had been swindled for 300 thousand, and it was Raymond Cole—the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe at that!Some of them wondered when Raymond had actually returned while others were laughing.He was supposed to be the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe, but he had messed up as well? You had to be kidding!Many were dumbstruck too—how would Raymond survive in Antique Street after losing so much money? It had been so long since such a major scam had been pulled!As such, all the antique dealers were asking one question: how did Raymond Cole get fooled?Meanwhile, Mick didn't leak the security footage right away, instead sending his people out to spread the news in other channels, claiming that Raymond thought he had won big by
Chapter 6475
Mick had already clipped the security footage and was waiting for Zachary's word.He had checked the footage repeatedly as well and was only getting more impressed with his masterful acting by the second. He looked just like a maestro, and every detail he mentioned was flawless and showed experience.Zacahry even said that Raymond had truly slipped up with that bronze sculpture, leaving him endlessly thrilled.The proverbial missing piece of the puzzle was here!Hence, calling all the staff he trusted, he told them excitedly, "Spread the word right away—Raymond Cole slipped up, spending 300 thousand on a fake Renaissance-era bronze sculpture!"His staff had no idea of the conspiracy involved, only that Mick had said that someone had tried to sell a counterfeit bronze sculpture but he had seen through it right away and chased him away, only for Raymond to end up buying the fake bronze sculpture soon after.Someone asked, "Mr. Crane, don't you think Raymond Cole bought from the man
Chapter 6474
Raymond had said everything he should and shouldn't and with complete sincerity exactly because Billy would never believe it.As Billy just wanted to swindle him, it didn't matter how sincere Raymond was—he wanted the 300 thousand whatever it took. The key here was that Billy had refused a better prospect when told it was possible, and there was evidence that would support Raymond if either he or Zachary realized the truth and came to start trouble.That meant Raymond had nothing to worry about—they could take this to the United Nations but he'd still win this case.Having been in the antique trade for so long, he had seen every form of oddity and was always cautious with people, considering every aspect of any issue.Hence, once he downloaded the security footage to his phone, Raymond decided that he needed to sell the bronze sculpture—not because he was in urgent need of money, but because he realized that there were those who wanted him out of Aurous Hill's Antique Street.Afte
